    I have had these when I had a flareup and for chondrocalcinosis of the knee.  when I had them I didnt care whether they hurt or not as my knee was so painful I was desperate for pain relief.  Yes they certainly do work.

    To: Mr. I have many injections on my bod!, the hips, back lower spine, RFA, radio ablations where they burn the nerves.  I always have sedation. Your choice. However their is an injection the doctor does in the office.  Are you having this done in a surgery suit?, much like an operating room?  Please advise.  Also please supply the type of injection you are havng, so we can comment. We need more medical information from you to comment correcty.  Jan
